So who do you think will win the World Cup in Qatar?
With Italy knocked out yesterday it will not be them.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
the weather will be a major factor here - evening kick offs don't seem too bad but around 24-25 for daytime kick offs which won't suit us.
We're still missing that key midfielder. I'd fancy us for a run to at least the quarters again then anything can happen but as I get older I think I'm accepting that I may not see a win in my lifetime There's always 2 or 3 better teams each tournament that have the edge on us.
Still imagine being Italian and you're looking at now a minimum of 12 years between being at a world cup - some Italian players entire careers there.
France will be there or there abouts and the weather will suit the south americans more. Belgium will still have a decent team and never discount the Germans no matter how badly they may have played.
Master - thank you for the invaluable analysis of Italy's chances of winning
Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
The stadiums will be air conditioned so the weather will be fine.
I would rather win a tournament like Italy and fail to get into others because at least you have got something to celebrate.
This thread was for Primo, not you.

Oh in that case may I suggest you DM him in the future rather than making a public thread.
Will be interesting to see how effective this AC is in the stadiums.

I remember the disappointment in 94. Only time it's happened for us in my lifetime - well OK 74 and 78 but was too young to know.
How does it feel Primo? Not being a twat asking that by the way and rubbing it in. Genuine question

Answering your question mate, it feels shit. And I disagree with @Master about it being better winning something and then not qualifying .
After probably never failing to qualify to failing twice on the trot is shameful.
It almost nullifies winning the euros. They mean nothing now.
I really couldn’t give 2 shits who wins it now. I might even protest and boycott the whole thing because of Qatar’s human rights record!

I agree re Qatar and the Saudi grand! prix etc. Shouldn't be happening there especially with all the grief others would be getting.
I also agree re disagreeing with master. I wouldn't want to win something and not qualify for a world Cup. Just being in the tournament and the build up is a great thing. Though ask me again in twenty years if England still haven't won anything and I might have a different answer.
To not qualify twice is unthinkable for a country like Italy.

Italy win tournaments, England have not won since 1966! Those men are legends who probably hate being rolled out each tournament to talk about their win.
Of course I would take a win than not qualifying for a tournament.
